Fasting? Does it help? Indicator of diet issues?

Post by NYanchuk »

Hi,

I did a water fast for 3 days last year and it DID give me a little relief. I did a water fast for 2 days at the begining of this year and it DIDN'T help at all this time. I did a 3 day juice fast a month or so ago, and it didn't help either.

I also did the low-oxylate diet for about 2-3 weeks last year, with no relief.

Until the last couple of weeks, I have been eating low gluten, mostly fruit and nuts and yogurt and shit.

This leads me to believe that my diet is not an issue.

Am I wrong to assume this?
Age: 26 - | Onset Age: 23 - | Symptoms: painful urination, painful ejaculation, cold penis, chronic pain through perenial area and penis esp. at tip of penis, penis desensitization, general pelvic discomfort and pain, dribbling, shooting pains up to abs, VERY easy loss of erection - | Worsened By: cold, sexual activity, alcohol, stress/stressful/strenuous activity, heavy lifting, concentrated urine, marajuana, hiking downhill, running - No Effect: stretching, acupuncture, mindfullness, relaxation, meditation, a blockers (alfuzosin, tamsulosin), antibiotics, painkiller, muscle relaxents, valerian root, quercetin (3 months...tried twice), low oxylate diet, herbal tinctures - Currently Trying: Lyrica 450mg/day + Tegretol 600mg/day. Seems to help a little, but the withdrawal + possibilities of worse pain make it scary to go off...

No, you could be right, although if you have a history of allergies or reactions of any kind to foods, you'd be better off trying a systematic elimination diet.
